It's amazing that today you still can not buy a camera that shoots 4k60 for under $1000 USD, but the phone from 7 years ago in your junk drawer can. Let me know in the comments which camera you use on a regular basis.
The X is still crazy expensive. I got this one at a discount because of the small crack on the back, and the cellphone radio is broken. Since I didn't intend to activate it, no problem for me. I guess I'm old school, but I actually prefer the phones with the large bezels and the more square aspect ratio. I'm about to put a Sim card in the 8 Plus and use it as a backup burner phone.
I can't really see it getting any higher than this until large 8k monitors/TVs (affordable ones) become a thing. Can't really say I'm super impressed with the footage since it seems the previous 3 iPhones were pretty close to these in terms of visual quality. It is nice to think one can use three different generations of iPhone, and splice their footage together without there being any noticeable difference. Could be pretty good for a budget multi-cam set up for indie productions. Also, yeah, the edge to edge display is completely pointless. That's how I was when I got my Galaxy Note 20. Such a nice display only for it to get canceled out by the otter case I had to put it in. lol
Yes, that's the whole point that a phone that is officially considered obsolete by Apple, that no longer can run the current operating system, is a better camera than any camera I own. You can buy a dozen of them for what a 4k60 camera costs. Thanks for watching.

Why are 8K cameras taking so long to be affordable? My phone shoots 8k but can't find a camera for less than $5k with lens.
